Filmmaker Katie Dellamaggiore here. It's been over two years since we launched our first Kickstarter campaign to create a film about the best junior high chess team in the country, I.S. 318 and a lot has happened since then! Here's what's happened because of YOUR HELP:</p><ul>
<li>Thanks to your generous support, we finished the film earlier this spring (YES!)</li>
<li>As you may know we re-named it Brooklyn Castle (<a href="http://www.brooklyncastle.com" target="_blank">http://www.brooklyncastle.com</a>) &amp; debuted it at the SXSW last March.</li>
<li>It was selected as the 2012 SXSW Documentary Audience Award Winner!</li>
<li>We secured a distributor earlier this Summer and IT'S NOW COMING TO SELECT THEATERS on October 19th! </li>
</ul><p>We don't want to lose the amazing grassroots support that got us here in the first place, so WE'RE ASKING YOU, our very first backers TO LEND A HAND again. Please take a moment to help us out now by:</p><ul>
<li>Supporting our new JUST LAUNCHED Kickstarter Campaign. It's more important now than ever that we find funding to bring the film to more people in more cities: <a href="http://kck.st/OBFxdR" target="_blank">http://kck.st/OBFxdR</a>
</li>
<li>Sharing the link to our Kickstarter campaign. Post it on Twitter, Facebook, email it to a friend who cares about after school programs or post it on your blog i: <a href="http://kck.st/OBFxdR" target="_blank">http://kck.st/OBFxdR</a>
</li>
<li>Following us on Facebook (<a href="http://www.fb.com/brooklyncastle" target="_blank">http://www.fb.com/brooklyncastle</a>) or Twitter (<a href="https://twitter.com/brooklyn_castle" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/brooklyn_castle</a>) to get future updates on the fall release</li>
</ul>We look forward to partnering with you to do more and tell the world about our BIG RELEASE in theaters on October 19th. Stay tuned!!<div>
